(It’s October 22nd, and you know what that means…it’s time for THE BIG OL’ CHICKEN-FEST!
(I completely made that up.) We’re celebrating my dad being in town with a boiled chicken/fried fish fiasco a la Darby and Brandy Roden, plus mystery *legal* reptile courtesy of Cajun cooker Red DeVecca… And (duh) New Orleans music played live from 102.3 WHIV FM studios! Plus…
We’re going to film a promo video for the Gal Holiday and the Honky Tonk Revue kickstarter at some point (hollah, Vanessa Niemann) so everybody PLEASE wear clothes this week. (ATTN Fabian Garcia & Emily Jarand: Assless chaps acceptable after 10pm.)

Yowza, we’re busting at the seams! (Who wants to build a MM&BRH venue for me?) We had a great time lingering on the Late Late Show (feat. special guest Chris DeFazio) last night. Thanks to Red & Brandy for bringing provisions and Emily Jarand, Fabian Garcia, and Natasha Sanchez for snappin’ they cameras! Also to Valerie Jean Capitanich for the lovely note and all the support, and everyone else who played, talked about thangs, and generally just lurked around convivially. Here is the playlist! Stay tuned for your weekly to-do list, coming momentarily. (“Momentarily” is one of those “literal lies” you hear tell about…)
